It has recently been announced that the President of France, Francois Hollande, has awarded Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Nayef with the Legion d’Honneur, which has provoked public outcry not only in the French Republic alone, but far beyond its borders for a whole number of reasons.

It should be underlined that this step goes far beyond the routine use of awards as a means of developing bilateral relations which has been widely used in international politics throughout history.

Even though the French Foreign Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault has tried to label this step as a “routine diplomatic tradition“, he failed to convince anyone into believing him.

Foreign and Expatriates Ministry wondered at the statements of the foreign ministers of France and the US on the Syrian Arab army’s recent victory in Aleppo.

The army sealed an important victory on Wednesday by breaking the long time terrorist siege of Nubbul and al-Zahraa towns in the northern countryside of Aleppo province, which followed a series of other previous victories.

The siege, which was imposed by the two terrorist organizations of Jabhat al-Nusra and Ahrar al-Sham among others, lasted for three and a half years, during which the locals showed “an unrelenting resilience and unshakable confidence in victory over the terrorists,” according to the source.

~ “Syria will only share intelligence information with France if Paris changes its policies in the region”.

~ “If the French government is not serious in its fight against terrorism, we will not waste our time collaborating with a country, government or an institution that supports terrorism”.

~ “You have to first change policy so that it is based on one criteria, to be part of an alliance that joins countries only fighting terrorism and not supporting them”.

~ “Whoever fights terrorism somewhere, will protect the rest of the world”.

President al-Assad added in an interview with the French Magazine Valeurs Actuelles Thursday that you cannot fight terrorism while you follow or pursue the wrong policies that support terrorism directly or indirectly.

Even General Jean-Bernard Pinatel, founder of the French “Groupe Permanent de Evaluations of Situations”, senior officer in the ranks of the advisors to the President of the French Republic, honestly and clearly has realized and declared that:

1- Putin understood what François Hollande was unable to perceive: that if Damascus became an Islamic capital in the hands of Al Nusra, Daesh and the others jihadists factions, the Islamism would proved its strength.

2- In six weeks the Syrian forces, backed by Russian strikes, have almost completely regained control of the strategic axis Damascus-Aleppo-Hama and cleared the international airport located east of Aleppo…inflicting heavy losses in the ranks of terrorist groups…what the U.S. and its coalition were not been able to do in over a year…

If, like me, you immediately realized that these Paris terror killings were a false flag operation, but couldn’t work out what it was intended to achieve or who benefited from it behind the scenes, you need to listen to what Gearoid has to tell us
(‘The Old Sniper’).

Some people are so naive and stupid as to think that no government would kill its own citizens.
But governments do so all the time.

There are an endless number of false flag attacks, such as Operation Gladio. Operation Gladio was a CIA/Italian intelligence operation that relentlessly bombed innocent Italians, such as those waiting in a train station, murdering hundreds, and then blaming the violence on the European communist parties in the post-WW II era in order to block the communists from electoral gains.

A president of Italy revealed the truth about Operation Gladio, and you can read the sordid detail in a number of books and online. The bombings were not done, as was widely reported in the corrupt Western media, by communists.

(By BrianHaw) ~ The myriad of marathon ‘talks’ that ignore the lawful right of the Syrian government to defend civilians from the US-led colonial war of aggression continues.

This weekend the Vienna Talks will re-convene and be followed by a G2O meeting in Turkey, whose ‘government’ is a leading terror state funneling weapons and mercenaries into Syria, while opening borders to Europe.

While the feeble minded US Secretary of State likes to fashion himself as some kind of long distance runner, all any law abiding civilians anywhere are really wondering is when the US military will go home and leave all civilian populations alone.

Illuminatingly the Turkish government will be making no effort whatsoever to carry out border checks for this weekends gathering of G20 leaders, while France is cynically using the Paris ‘Climate Change’ conference to conduct border checks of an unknown kind.

… … …

A pro-AKP Turkish Daily Yeni Safak is incredibly publishing speculative war propaganda about the G20 being a platform to discuss a Turkish troop invasion of Northern Syria.

(By SFP-WP-SyrianPatriots) ~ The aim, all too obvious, is to have an incontrovertible and very strong excuse, needed for a direct Western military intervention on Syrian soil, to counter the Russian anti-terrorism operations (that are putting in serious difficulty the gangs of “moderate terrorists” backed by the Western military intelligence to oppose the legitimate government in Damascus).
A plan like the Libyan one, but in a version more complicated because of the Syrian resistance and the Russian intervention. The dirty manual labor (as for the 9/11) is always wahhabi/jihadist, of the most rude and ignorant species, but always directed by the same lobbies.

What changes is that all of us already know this game, and even more is known in Moscow, Tehran and Beijing. Because for the question “Cui Prodest” there is only one answer, that as crazy as it sounds, is unfortunately the only one realistic.

(By Tony Cartalucci-Journal Neo) ~ Reports indicate an unprecedented terrorist attack has unfolded in France, with over 150 dead, many more injured and reports still trickling in regarding the full-scale of the violence.
The first and most important question in examining any great crime is “cui bono?” or to whose benefit? Attacking Paris, and in particular a football match full of nationalists already increasingly violent and hysterical seems to only benefit a government seeking further justification to wage wider war abroad – a war it is currently losing and a war it currently lacks wide public support to continue fighting. It now, all so conveniently, has the support it was looking for.

(By Prof Michel Chossudovsky, GlobalResearch) ~ Terrorist attacks have been carried simultaneously in several locations in the Paris metropolitan area. Official reports at the time of writing (21.oo ET) point to more than 140 deaths.

The threat is real, according to Judge Trévédic in an interview with Paris Match. ”The attacks in France will be on a scale comparable to 9/11″ – France is under attack. We must defend ourselves.

The media immediately started comparing the November 13 attacks in Paris to 9/11.

Who is Behind the Terrorists? ~ What the French media in its coverage of these tragic events fails to mention is that both the US and France, not to mention Britain, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Israel are covertly supporting various Al Qaeda affiliated terrorist formations in Syria and Iraq including al Nusrah and the Islamic State.

France is the victim of the Islamic State, but at the same time the US and its allies including France are “State sponsors” of the Islamic state which is an Al Qaeda affiliated entity.

Russia has accused France of violating international law by launching a bombing campaign in the Syrian territory, purportedly against positions of the so-called “Islamic State” (ISIL) terrorist organization in Syria.

Zakharova pondered that “it would be nice to know more about this concept of self-defense, in the form of air strikes [on the territory of Syria,] a state which did not attack anyone, and without its consent, and about this concept’s compliance with international law.”

Zakharova noted that she found it entertaining that “the referendum in Crimea is called an annexation, but air strikes conducted without the approval of the Security Council or of the receiving side is self-defense.”

The air strikes France delivered on Syria were not coordinated with Damascus, Syria’s Ambassador to the United Nations Organisation (UN) Bashar Jaafari told TASS correspondent on Sunday.

“The French president has not coordinated those actions with the Syrian president,” he said. “The French military acted without an agreement with the Syrian armed forces. It is impossible to be fighting terrorism other than in cooperation with the legal government in Syria and the Syrian military.

Jaafari commented abruptly on Hollande’s announcement about air strikes on Syria and on his statement Bashar Assad does not have a role in future of that country.

“By calling for change of the regime he is contradicting with the UN Charter,” the ambassador said. Words of the kind are clueless, especially at the UN headquarters

Addressing the 2015 UN Sustainable Development Summit on Saturday, which adopted the agenda, al-Jaafari said terrorism is chief among other elements that are holding back development in Syria.

“Terrorism is burning up everything all around and wiping out all the achievements made by the Syrians towards achieving development,” added al-Jaafari, explaining that Syria’s economy, infrastructure, resources, its youth’s potentials and civilization are all jeopardized by terrorism.

The Genocidal war on Syria only continues because NATO regimes and their allies dishonestly claim they and not the Syrian government, have the “choice” to decide who has and can use lethal weapons…in Syria.

Le Monde’s French “source” flying the kite about Hollande considering extending air strikes into Syria is only an extension of that Genocidal lie, where most people know that all the variously monikered ‘opposition’ to the Syrian government, including the ‘Islamic State’ are NATO mercenaries.

The UN’s mask and the old chestnut of international law are slipping badly now they can no longer disguise it is civilian society’s rule of law NATO’s military dictatorships are trampling all over to slaughter any civilians who get in their way.

The French “source” behind the latest claim is illuminatingly unclear what legal process President Hollande would intend to follow to embark on such an illegal action as escalating the illegal use of lethal weapons in Syria.

The French president has admitted delivering weapons to the Syrian rebels during a period of EU embargo, a new book about to be published in France reveals.

The deliveries took place in 2012, before the embargo was canceled in May 2013, according to François Hollande’s last year interview with journalist and writer Xavier Panon. “We began when we were certain they would end up in the right hands. For the lethal weapons it was our services who delivered them,” Hollande told the writer, AFP reports.

Panon used the interview in his book “In the Corridors of French Diplomacy” which comes out in France this month.

In an interview with France 2 TV, President Assad accused France of supporting the same terrorists who carried out attacks in Paris: “Is it democratic to send weapons to terrorists and to support them? So I have the right to support the terrorists who attacked Charlie Hebdo, for example?” he added.
